Anyones 3 year old take tumbling?

I have been looking into getting L in a tumbling class.  They have a summer program, which I think would be a good start, since the cost is lower.  Is it a waste of time or would it be a good thing for a 3 year to get into?

Re: Anyones 3 year old take tumbling?

  • Sure, why not. At 3 yo, DD started a class that included ballet, tap and tumbling.She loved it.
    My darling daughter just turned 4 years old.

  • I think it really depends on the program. My 4 year old took a gymnastics/tumbling class and while he enjoyed it, I actually thought it was very tame and borderline boring. Meanwhile a 4 year old friend was taking a similar class at another location and she was doing much more adventurous and fun skills. Most places will give you a free trial class and you could go from there.

  • I think tumbling is perfect for a 3 y/o.  Lots of gross motor play and activity.  My kids have done tumbling since 3 y/o and loved it.

  • My oldest 2 kids did toddler tumbling classes started at age 2.   DD loved it and she went on to do dance 3 more years and gymnastics this year.   Its a basic class but helps teach/reinforce classroom expecations.

    My 2nd son only did it a few months.   It was too slow paced for my boy who is doing much better in karate (and now that he is older).  I couldn't do the mommy and me portion of the class after I had DS2 with my NB and 4 year old needing attention to.  MH could not watch them...

  • DS took 8 weeks of gymnastics and LOVED It! One hour a week, and he was beat by the end! I recommend!
